Network antenna ALLNET ANT-58-1T1R-PATCH-385

The ALLNET ANT-58-1T1R-PATCH-385 is a compact directional network antenna designed for operation across the 5.15–5.85 GHz band. With a maximum gain of 19 dBi and dual polarization, the antenna supports focused wireless links and helps extend signal range and stability. Its N-type connector and 10 W power handling make it suitable for outdoor and indoor point-to-point or point-to-multipoint deployments where a reliable directional signal is required. The housing in white and the compact footprint of 385 mm x 80 mm x 385 mm facilitate installation on masts, walls or poles with appropriate mounting hardware.

Advantages

The antenna provides high directional gain (19 dBi) to improve link budget and reduce interference from off-axis sources. Dual polarization increases compatibility with equipment using vertical or horizontal polarization and can improve throughput in environments with mixed antenna orientations. The N-type connector supports standard coaxial cables for easy integration into existing installations, while the rated 10 W power handling covers typical access point and radio power levels. Its compact, weather-resistant form factor simplifies placement in constrained outdoor or indoor locations.

Suitable for

• Outdoor point-to-point wireless links in the 5 GHz band
• Point-to-multipoint access where a directional, high-gain antenna is required
• Extension of Wi‑Fi coverage for rooftop or tower-mounted radios
• Environments requiring dual polarization to match different radio polarities

How to use

Install the antenna on a suitable mast, pole or wall bracket using compatible mounting hardware and ensure correct orientation toward the remote radio or coverage area. Connect the antenna to the wireless radio using an N-type terminated coaxial cable of appropriate length and loss characteristics; verify cable polarity and connector tightness. Configure the radio for the 5.15–5.85 GHz band and set polarization to match the antenna orientation. After powering the radio, check link quality and make fine adjustments to pointing as needed to achieve optimal signal strength and stability.

Usage recommendations

For best performance, use low-loss coaxial cable and minimize cable length between antenna and radio. Align the antenna precisely for directional links and periodically inspect connectors and mounting hardware for corrosion or loosening in outdoor deployments. Match polarization between both ends of a link to avoid polarization loss.
